Banff Caribou Lodge and Spa
Quiet, blackout curtains, comfy beds/pillows. A little further down the strip so about a 15 - 17 min walk to the heart of downtown. Nice to be able to order room service, starting at 6:30. Large parkade, parking included. Would stay again!

Rocky Mountain Ski Lodge
The location worked great for hopping onto the hwy which was great. Was also spacious for what we needed. Definitely well used though with tricky to move drapes that barely slide unless you held the current just right. The kitchen utensils and pot/pan options were also very very lacking in quality ...
